4. Metalingus
5. The End is Here
6. Words Darker Than Their Wings
7. Dying Light

I know it's unusual, but there are the songs that I enjoy listening the most.

1. Blackbird
2. Cry Of Achilles
3. Fortress
4. Brand New Start
5. Calm the Fire
6. Buried Alive
7. Lover
8. Watch Over You
9. Words Darker Than Their Wings
10. Clear Horizon

My list is dominated by Blackbird and Fortress, obviously, and I’m not willing to change any of the top 8. I love Walk the Sky, it’s very consistent but doesn’t have the massive peaks of their previous work. Clear Horizon has taken over as my favorite on the album right now and I felt like it could kick I Know It Hurts off the list, at least at the moment.

I’ve done a lot of thinking about this lately... I need to revise my list.

1. Blackbird
2. Cry of Achilles
3. Cradle to the Grave
4. Fortress
5. Words Darker Than Their Wings
6. Walking On the Sky
7. Waters Rising
8. Ghost of Days Gone By
9. Forever Falling
10. Dying Light

Cradle to the Grave has been on my mind non-stop as of late. When I look at my Dad, I see a man who is approaching retirement age, clearly is looking older... I immediately think about this song. That personal connection catapulted it towards the top.

And yes, 3 tracks from Walk the Sky. While I don’t think it’s their best record (I have it ranked 3A, with AB3 being 3B), the highs of the record are just awesome. It’s a record where some songs didn’t age well to me, but the strongest songs really stood out and will be some of my favorites for years to come.

Honorable mentions:

Show Me a Sign
Bleed It Dry
Watch Over You
Isolation
Metalingus
Open Your Eyes
Burn It Down
The Last Hero
My Champion
Clear Horizon
Calm the Fire
Island of Fools
Slip to the Void
